Freely give ...

Galatians 5:22-23 

22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace,

patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control.

There is no law against these things!

Freely give what you receive

 

Look at your fruit trees – your branches are just loaded

Your season is right now and you won’t hold back

You seem so at peace as you seem overloaded

As your branches bow as under the weight they sag

 

Some broke off suddenly but you never complained

You gave all you had for other bearing branches

You provided constantly and absorbed all the rain

As God blessed your path as in such your gift enhances

 

You freely give to everyone who passes by in need

You don’t ask any questions or they deserve what you provide

Somewhere there are some who live on guided greed

And profit not to mention ... of what yourself can’t loose
